Packaging design agency Cardiff
Powerful packaging design for ambitious brands
Your packaging is often the first physical interaction a customer has with your brand. In a split second, it has to attract attention, communicate value and influence purchase decisions.
We design packaging that works hard on the shelf and online – combining strong visual design with practical production knowledge to help products stand out in competitive markets.
Based in Cardiff, working with product-led brands across the UK.

Our clients’ frequently asked questions
What type of product packaging do you design?
We design all types of consumer and commercial packaging – food and drink, beauty and skincare, health and wellness, household products, and more. Our particular strengths are eco and sustainable packaging, luxury finishes, and multi-SKU product ranges.
What is a cutter guide (dieline)?
A cutter guide – also called a dieline or die template – is a flat, 2D template that shows exactly how your packaging will be cut, folded, and assembled. It’s a technical document required before print production begins. We produce all cutter guides in-house and work directly with your printer or manufacturer to ensure everything fits perfectly.
How much does packaging design cost?
Our packaging design projects start from £2,500. The final investment depends on the number of products, complexity of the packaging structure, and whether additional services like copywriting, photography, or print management are included. We provide a fixed quote before any work starts – no hidden costs.
Can you design for multiple products ranges?
Yes, designing cohesive ranges is something we do regularly and enjoy. Brand consistency across multiple SKUs is critical on shelf, and we ensure every product in your range is instantly recognisable as part of the same family while giving each variant its own clear identity.
What information do I need to provide to get started?
A brief is the best starting point. We’ll need to understand your product, target audience, retail environment, and any regulatory requirements such as barcodes, ingredients panels, allergen information, or accreditation logos. Structural details like pack dimensions and fill weight are also helpful early on. We can guide you through what’s needed if you’re unsure.
How long does packaging design take?
A typical packaging project takes 3 to 6 weeks from agreed brief to final print-ready files. Timelines vary depending on the number of products, rounds of feedback, and whether print management is included. If you have a hard launch deadline, tell us at the start and we’ll plan the project around it.
Do you design sustainable and eco-friendly packaging?
Yes, sustainable packaging design is a core specialism. We work with materials that reduce environmental impact, design for minimal waste in production, and help you communicate your sustainability credentials clearly on pack. We can advise on material choices and connect you with specialist eco-friendly printers.
Can you redesign existing packaging?
Yes, a packaging refresh or full redesign is something we do regularly. Whether you want to modernise the look, reflect a rebrand, improve shelf performance, or move to more sustainable materials, we can work from your existing packaging as a starting point or take a completely fresh approach.
Do you work with food and drink brands?
Yes. Food and drink packaging involves specific regulatory requirements – ingredient listings, allergen declarations, nutritional information panels, and shelf-life labelling. We’re familiar with UK and Welsh food packaging regulations and can design packaging that’s both visually compelling and fully compliant.
Sustainability in packaging is no longer a nice-to-have. It’s a purchasing decision for a growing number of consumers.
We design packaging that considers materials, production methods, and environmental impact – from recyclable and compostable options through to minimal-waste design approaches – without compromising shelf impact or brand presence.
Packaging designed with purpose
Every packaging project we work on is built around a clear objective. Whether that’s increasing shelf impact, improving customer perception, or supporting product launch success.
We combine creative design with practical production knowledge to ensure your packaging works in the real world, not just on screen.
Our work with Tabitha Eve is a strong example of this approach – the redesigned packaging gained wider recognition and was featured in publications including Vogue and Glamour, and appeared in Emma Watson’s ‘What’s in my handbag’ YouTube series, showing how effective packaging can elevate a brand far beyond the shelf.
